Federal Sales Director

We're Blue Cat—a Great Place to Work for good reason. Our team solves critical network challenges for some of the world's largest organizations. In simple terms, we manage the systems that keep networks running smoothly, securely, and reliably—the backbone infrastructure that powers digital transformation for enterprises globally. Our Intelligent Network Operations platform delivers and enables AI-driven agentic ops at scale, automating and simplifying how companies manage, secure, and optimize their networks.

But what makes us different is how we work: we believe great work happens in an environment where you're trusted, heard, and supported. With teams globally, we're building a workplace culture that values collaboration and integrity as much as innovation. If you're looking to advance your career with a company that invests in its people, this is it.

Blue Cat is hiring a
Federal Regional Director to build and scale our U.S. Federal business during a critical growth phase.

This is a true player / coach role for someone who can both carry a strategic number personally while building the foundation for a high-performing Federal team. We are looking for a proven Federal seller who knows how to open doors, build executive credibility, create pipeline, close complex enterprise deals, and mentor a growing organization along the way.

The ideal candidate understands the evolving Federal networking and cybersecurity landscape — especially around resiliency, observability, automation, and Zero Trust architectures — and can position Blue Cat as a strategic platform partner across mission-critical infrastructure initiatives.

Blue Cat is uniquely positioned at the intersection of:

• Network Infrastructure (DNS, DHCP, IPAM)
• Cybersecurity and Zero Trust
• Network Automation
• Hybrid Cloud Networking
• Network Observability and Operational Intelligence

Federal agencies increasingly need visibility, resiliency, and control across distributed environments. Blue Cat helps them modernize foundational network services while improving security posture and operational awareness.

This role reports directly into senior sales leadership and will play a major role in shaping our long-term Federal go-to-market strategy.

• Build repeatable sales motions, operational rigor, and territory discipline that can scale as the Federal business grows.

Lead as a Player / Coach

• Personally drive strategic opportunities while mentoring and guiding other Federal sellers.
• Help onboard, develop, and elevate future Federal Account Executives.
• Share best practices around account strategy, pipeline development, Federal procurement navigation, and executive engagement.
• Act as a culture leader who brings urgency, accountability, collaboration, and professionalism to the team.

Drive Complex Enterprise and Federal Sales Cycles

• Lead sophisticated, multi-threaded sales cycles from initial engagement through close.
